Zagreb Cathedral

Zagrebačka katedrala

One of the tallest buildings in Croatia. Its neo-Gothic twin spires are the landmark of Zagreb's skyline.

The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Zagreb was begun in the 11th century. After the major earthquake of 1880, it was rebuilt in neo-Gothic style, and its twin towers rise about 105 meters. The cathedral was damaged again by an earthquake in 2020 and remains under long-term restoration. Scaffolding covers the towers, and interior access varies, so check before you go. In front of the cathedral stands a golden Marian column. The Kaptol district is right by its entrance, and it's a one-minute walk to Dolac Market.

Opening hours

Approx. 10:00–17:00 (access uncertain during restoration)
